Personally, I think the state lottery is essentially a voluntary tax on the stupid. I can't understand why anyone would pay to be at an 18,000,000 to 1 disadvantage. I'm curious though, how do you see it costing the MA State Lottery "alot of money"? Do you really think that many people will stop playing the MA Lottery to play online poker? If that's the case, I'd be curious how much the MA Lottery's revenue increased when the online poker restrictions were put in place.

I don't play either JD and hate getting behind someone who puts 10$ in the gas tank, gets a pack of smokes and put's the rest of their last $20 bucks on scratch tickets.
Alot of the people I see purchasing lottery tickets don't look too full of ambition. I see online poker as a lazy way to play the lottery. So yes, I see it hurting town revenues.
